Everything you need to know about this cruiser-based, crowd-sourced, social app. We rely on it every day! Summary When you've arrived at a new anchorage, how do you figure out how to find necessities? Especially if you're out of range of The Boat Galley cruising guides? After all, there are places where cruising guides don't exist. Luckily I have a great resource to share.  Cruising is more than dolphins and beautiful sunsets. Sometimes, you gotta get stuff done, like buying groceries or diesel. Or maybe you're just craving a restaurant meal or want a fun day off the boat.  You have a few options for finding information. You can read guides and hope the information isn't out of date. You can review Google Maps. You can even dinghy around to other boaters and ask. They're all helpful resources. And the last might even introduce you to a new friend. We rely on the app NoForeignLand.com. No information is hidden behind a paywall. There are no pop-up ads. You can support them on Patreon. But they don't sell user's information. Social features include tracking other boats. Information is provided by cruisers for cruisers. One feature even allows you to call for information from others directly on the app. Created by cruisers for cruisers, the information is relevant to our needs. I highly recommend it, no matter where you're traveling. For more details, listen to the full podcast or check out No Foreign Land - An Excellent Resource for Cruisers.

Cruising Through Grief

As I Live and Grieve

Send us some LOVE!Imagine a place where your grief doesn't need to be hidden, where joy and sorrow can peacefully coexist, and where everyone around you truly understands the weight you carry. That's the revolutionary concept behind The Grief Cruise, created by Linda Findlay after her own devastating loss of a newborn daughter more than three decades ago.Linda shares her remarkable journey from bereaved mother to grief advocate, describing how the absence of support following her daughter's death inspired her to create aftercare programs for funeral homes across North America. "My daughter's legacy is my life's work," she explains, detailing how a two-hour life sparked a mission spanning four decades and helping countless grievers.The Grief Cruise emerged from Linda's understanding that grievers often feel guilty about experiencing joy after loss. By creating a dedicated community of fellow mourners who gather on a beautiful ship with ocean views and tropical destinations, participants discover something transformative: permission to feel both their grief and moments of happiness simultaneously.What makes this retreat uniquely powerful is its thoughtful balance. Workshops provide practical tools for navigating grief, while port excursions and shipboard activities offer natural opportunities for relaxation and connection. The carefully crafted opening ceremony links each participant with their lost loved one, carrying that presence throughout the journey. As one attendee discovered, the experience isn't about escaping grief but learning to navigate it with new perspectives and companions who truly understand.Perhaps most remarkable is what happens after the cruise ends. The bonds formed during these retreats often last long past disembarkation, with many participants staying connected through Linda's free monthly virtual support group and returning for future cruises. "I know the cruise works because it was so hard to say goodbye to everybody," reflects podcast host Kathy, who experienced the most recent sailing both as a presenter and attendee.Whether you're newly grieving or years into your journey, consider what might happen when you allow yourself to experience both the waves of grief and moments of joy, surrounded by others walking the same path. The next Grief Cruise sets sail February 2026 with a special 10th anniversary pre-cruise retreat—an opportunity to discover that healing isn't about leaving grief behind but learning to carry it more gently.Contact:www.asiliveandgrieve.cominfo@asiliveandgrieve.comFacebook:  As I Live and GrieveInstagram:  @asiliveandgrieveYouTube:  asiliveandgrieveTikTok: @asiliveandgrieveTo Reach Linda:Website:  https://www.mourningdiscoveries.com/the-grief-cruisesCredits: Music by Kevin MacLeod Support the showCopyright 2020, by As I Live and GrieveThe views expressed by guests are their own and their appearance on the program does not imply an endorsement of them or any entity they represent.

Best Marine Weather Apps

I'm frequently asked for the best marine weather apps. Cruising the Florida coast and Bahamas, I've found a few favorites. Summary Apps are helpful. But don't forget to look out the hatch to see what's happening in your area.  If you need more information, here's what we relied on while cruising Florida and the Bahamas. Windy Windy is great for a color-coded, big-picture view of the wind, wave, and rain forecasts. The motion feature shows changes over the hours and days. We've found Windy pretty accurate. It does require internet access to use. RADAR Radar programs come and go. So I can't recommend a specific one. I prefer ones that show how fast the storm cells are moving and in what direction. Hurricane Tracker Everything Hurricane Tracker offers is available on the (US) National Hurricane Center website. What Hurricane Tracker does brilliantly is to make the information easy to access. This is critical if you either have slow internet or pay by data used. For each storm (and Invest and Potential Storm), Hurricane Tracker has all the NHC maps, satellite images, and the official forecasts and analysis. It's quick and easy to tap or click from one to another. Its ease of use is why I'm willing to pay for lifetime access. Marine Weather Center Marine Weather Center is the “proper” name for what most East Coast and Caribbean cruisers call “Chris Parker's weather.” Chris and his staff are full-time marine forecasters for this area and provide subscription forecasts by SSB and email. Subscribe via SSB to talk with him during his designated times for your location. But we use email for time to digest the information. Chris is a former cruiser who understands weather as it applies to boats. And he's trained other forecasters to do the same. Forecasts are quite accurate. They tend to err on the side of caution.  To read and for cost information for the apps or information about apps for other cruising grounds, visit Favorite Weather Apps or listen to the complete podcast.

Send us a textHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, I am delighted to welcome Presley Pfereka, a crew member for Azamara luxury cruise line. I have long observed with awe and fascination cruise ship crew from the Captain to entry-level crew members and have hosted on The Joy of Cruising Podcast a cross-section of ship crew, both former as well as active over the past years. I would love to delve into their lives in an in-depth manner both on the home front as well as at sea. I have often noted that if I had the resources this is a book project I would love to pursue. While I can't begin to do justice to that in an hour or so podcast episode, my discussion with Presley affords us a brief, unique look at ship life through her eyes. The variety of crew, staff, officers, and guest performers who have guested on the podcast range from childcare associates to maitre d' to Captains, acrobats, magicians, to guest singers and comedians from all over the world. Presley is my first guest from Zimbabwe, in the Southeastern part of Africa. I first found out about Presley by way of an article I read in Conde Nast Traveler, “What It's Like to Be a Waitress on a Cruise Ship,” by Ashlea Halpern. Presley is a 37-year young lady from Easten Zimbabwe, Manicaland Province. She finished high school and started working at a young age as an organizing secretary for a non-governmental organization). This was after her parents passed on. Presley has two daughters aged 17 and 6. She moved to South Africa in search of greener pastures and worked a variety of jobs. In 2012 Presley met a fellow Zimbabwean who introduced her to Open Distance Learning with the University of South Africa. She enrolled with the University and attained a Higher Certificate in Business Management and then Registered for Bachelor of Commerce In Business Management which she is still pursuing. After coming across an advertisement on LinkedIn regarding cruise ship job interviews to take place in Cape Town in 2023, Presley applied as it was her wish to travel and work on cruise ships. This led to her being hired by Azamara January 2024 as Assistant Waitress. In November 2024 she got promoted to Administration as a Payroll Purser.Find Presley online YouTube: presleypfereka3174TikTok: @Presley PeeInstagram:  presley_pee87Facebook: Presley PeeEmail:  pee.pfereka@gmail.comSupport the showSupport thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

Comedian Jiaoying Summers joins Adam for a wild ride through today's most outrageous headlines. They kick things off with the shocking new allegations from the Diddy trial, claiming Diddy forced Cassie to engage in acts with male prostitutes. The conversation takes a bizarre turn as they discuss Lyoto Machida and the supposed health benefits of drinking your own urine.Adam then shares a surreal AI video of himself jump roping, using it as a springboard to critique a questionable deodorant commercial that he believes symbolizes the decay of American society. From there, Adam pitches his outrageous idea for a certified gay gynecologist, claiming it would solve a host of ethical issues in that field.The laughs continue as Adam riffs on the Al Pacino classic "Cruising," recreating an improv scene from the BEAT IT OUT PODCAST with Jay Mohr—where Jay channels his inner Pacino and Adam takes on the role of Powers Boothe.News with Mayhem: Schwarzenegger's son shedding some serious weight, Gavin Newsom's new “plan” to end homelessness, Meghan Markle making headlines again and the internet being divided over a woman bringing a full rotisserie chicken onto an airplane.

How to Capture Rainwater from your Cruising Boat

Here's why you should collect rain water on your cruising boat, even if you have a watermaker. And a few tips to tell you how to do it. Summary  Catching rainwater on the boat? Is it worth it even if you have easy access to water in your cruising locale? We think so. In the Marquesas, where we're currently cruising, we find taps providing water in every settlement's port. It's not always potable. But it's suitable for showers and laundry. We also have a small watermaker onboard. Even so, we still gather rainwater aboard Calypso. A heavy rainfall fills our collapsible water jugs in 20 minutes with a little effort and no electricity. Our watermaker uses 10 amp hours of electricity to produce three gallons. That's electric that we could use for making bread, accessing the internet, or other luxuries.  Collecting water also means we don't have to be stingy with washing laundry. And can take longer showers. Every day. Calypso's awning was designed to collect water with quick-connect fittings that we direct to a bucket. Even without an awning, you can collect water running off your bimini. Or collect it directly from the sky.  For more details, listen to the full podcast. Or check out Water Catching FTW for pictures of our setup.

Send us a textHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, a special group of guests, The Chefs: Jerome Brown aka Chef Rome, the chef to the stars with over 35 years of professional cooking, the go-to chef for celebrities worldwide; Chicago Chef George Outlaw specializing in elevated soul food with bold and unusual food combinations; Chef Sondra (Dra) Rhodes bringing creole and southern country cuisine to your table; and, Chef Ricky Simpson, Jr., an Atlanta resident whose credo is “To enlighten people to a healthier way to make their favorite foods.”  We were introduced to The Chefs on our recent bucket list cruise, the Soul Train Cruise, which we raved about in our reflections of the cruise several weeks ago on Ep 165 The Soul Train Cruise. It was our first Soul Train Cruise; we enjoyed it so much that we booked for 2026. Immediately after we boarded the Holland America Line Nieuw Amsterdamwe became aware of The Chefs albeit in an indirect way. In the buffet we noticed some soul food items; for instance, there was Rick's Ribs. Then at the main dining room, throughout the menu was soul food and New Orleans favorites. Things came into perspective when we read the tent card on our table mentioning The Chefs return to the Soul Train Cruise (for the third year) along with short bios of each. I have hosted several fascinating celebrity chefs on The Joy of Cruising Podcast. This is the first time I get to host a team—each a celebrity chef in their own right.Support the showSupport thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

Are you looking to learn or just get the boat moved?Be Prepared: Make sure your boat is ready—fuel, systems checked, provisions in place. The captain isn't there to do maintenance.Watch and Learn: Use the opportunity to soak up knowledge.

George is a Hospitality Professor at FGCU, and he did some collaboration with the organization I led, which was the Office of Continuing and Off-Campus Education. George and I always had a good rapport given our mutual interests—not just in continuing ed but hospitality, which I had taught at my prior institution. George taught cruise management classes and led several cruises with students. He also garnered a reputation for putting together annual land trips to his homeland of Greece, popular with students, faculty, and the southwest Florida community.  Dr. George Alexakis is a lifelong tourism and hospitality professional who began his career managing his family's restaurant and banquet operations in Ontario, Canada. He went on to serve as a hospitality consultant and marketing manager for the renowned firm, Cini-Little International. Today, he is a full professor at Florida Gulf Coast University, where he teaches courses in culturally responsible tourism, sustainability, and a variety of other courses. An accomplished speaker and educator, Dr. Alexakis has presented across the globe on topics such as dynamic communication, exceptional customer service, and human resource development. He has taught in Italy, the Caribbean, Israel, and aboard major cruise ships. He holds a doctorate in higher education with a concentration in hospitality, a hospitality master's, and a hospitality and tourism bachelors. A prolific scholar, George has authored numerous articles and book chapters in the fields of tourism, entrepreneurship, and leadership. Each summer, he plans a tour for travelers to have an authentic experience of Greece—off the beaten path and beyond the postcard views. Very fluent in Greek and deeply connected to his heritage, George collaborates closely with a professional tour director and local guides to create unforgettable cultural experiences filled with heritage, storytelling, and—of course—fun.
